Font Selector for Adobe InDesign [experiment]
Font Selector for InDesign
This is an experimental app to display a font panel in InDesign in order to easily apply various fonts to the selected text.
This is not a finished product. It’s based on a totally different app that was quickly repurposed to display a font list in InDesign.
- System Requirements
macOS 11 and later
InDesign 2022 and later
- Installation
Unzip and move Font Selector to the Applications folder.
- How to use
Double-click Font Selector like any other app to display the font list in InDesign.
Select some text in InDesign and use Font Selector to apply various fonts.
- Font list filtering
In the preferences, you can specify fonts you wish to hide (based on strings to filter).
Restart Font Selector to take effect.
- Feedback
Please send any feedback via the support page https://zevrix.com/support (or by using the contact options from within Font Selector).
As mentioned, it’s an experiment whose future (or lack thereof) depends on the user feedback.
- Notes
Font Selector will add a menu bar item. You can also use it to open preferences and quit the app.
It’s an element from the original app. It’s not adapted for anything else in Font Selector.
There are several other items and menus that refer to the functionality of the original app.
Font Selector currently does NOT reflect the font applied to the selected text in InDesign. Font Selector only applies the font selected in its list.
Next Stages
In the next stages of the beta program, the following new options are planned:
- Sync workflows across multiple Macs via iCloud
- New variable name options (PDF preset and more)
- Export as sections
- and more...
